The 16-month Inspector General review of the DOJ/FBI investigation of the Hillary Clinton email is soon to be made public. The IG inquiry is specifically looking into whether the FBI investigation was corrupted by political influence in their determination of the Clinton outcome. The preliminary investigative outcomes speak for themselves.

The OIG review of the DOJ and FBI conduct has taken a long time; and with good reason. The scale of the misconduct is staggering. John Spiropoulos, a former TV news reporter at WJLA, the ABC affiliate in Washington, DC, has created a series of video reports as a reminder on the background on the crime, the coverup and the corruption.

SD stated in another article that Mueller (the one with Caputo saying the SC has all their texts) is working off the last FISA that Rosenstein signed off on. So there are no rubber stamps involved, at least not for this portion. It’s all continuation of the original b.s. Maybe a small thanks that no additional corruptocrats are in play?

I respectfully disagree. If we lived in a police state, the authorities would not waste time on any of what you mentioned; nor, would they need to. The target would simply be jailed indefinitely, killed, or disappeared.

The truth, in my opinion, is that we still live in the greatest country in the world; and, although it has been watered down over the years, we still have the best system of government ever devised (with God’s help) and/or implemented by man. The very fact that the bad guys failed to win even after doing everything you mentioned, and a lot more, proves that to be true.

But do you really think that there is a chance of getting another SC with current DOJ management in office? Our only hope would be to get Rudy placed somewhere at the top in management–Of course, McConnell would fight this…….

The Mueller ‘Brass Knuckles’ gang are thinking straight.
Their entire purpose is to put a ball-and-chain on Trump’s ankle, to weaken him politically, to prevent him from carrying out his agenda. To destroy Trump, and destroy anyone -associates or attorneys working for or with him- so that NO ONE will have the courage EVER again to stand up to the Crooked Deep State.
Oh….. and also to draw attention from the whole Clinton mess…. pay-to-play, ‘favors’ from the Sec of State in return for million$ ‘donated’ to the Clinton Slush Fund, influence peddling, the Uranium One scandal (which I understand Rosenstein is involved in up to his eyeballs. For starters.

Crooks. All of ’em!

As a side note….. I recently heard that there are some tens of thousands of HildeBeast emails that were on Pervy Weiner’s laptop (yes, the one he used to send ‘sexts’ to that 15-year-old. As far as I know, NO-ONE has looked at THOSE! Could it be another copy of the infamous ‘missing’ 30-thousand HildeBeast emails?

Trump has executive power to have everything made public, including DOJ or FBI memo to get SC that Rosenstein will not produce. Unless the IG is keeping these under wraps for part of the IG report and prosecution, Trump should demand that it be produced and declassify it so the American public is hearing the truth!

I am sick of hearing the left and MSM screaming that Trump is guilty and we must prosecute! Other than some honest members of the Freedom Caucus, no GOP members are shaming this sham investigation.

This is a horrible constitutional crisis that can not continue to fester or we live in a banana republic where we have no constitutional rights and our vote can be manipulated by the Deep State and establishment swamp.

“This is a horrible constitutional crisis that can not continue to fester or we live in a banana republic where we have no constitutional rights and our vote can be manipulated by the Deep State and establishment swamp.”

DC is a “Federal District” and martial law can be declared there with Federal troops deployed.
(Previously done when Mac Arthur led active duty troops to rout the WW I veteran’s Bonus Army out of DC. That was a regrettable low point for the Feral Gov but What’s new about “low points” for the Feral Gov?)
As for the current situation, selected Executive Dept. buildings could be seized by the military by Executive Order. Then the records contained within could be declassified by Executive Order and made public.
Either the Equal Application of the Rule of Law gets applied to these Deep State Criminals or else*.
Else* is we succumb into a total Feral Tyranny or we water Mr. Jefferson’s tree.

Liberals have set the standard on how to treat political opponents. Now, Conservatives know how to treat Liberals when they get elected. No more nice guys. Climb in the Liberal RAT sewer and fight to win.

The RINOS definitely have been against Trump from the beginning. He won because of the people in Florida Ohio and Penn and Michigan. Why do they say they have great faith in Mueller? Because they want our President out and they want to go back to their money grubbing ways in the Congress. Thank god for the Freedom Caucus and for the House Intelligence Committee (Republicans) and POTUS. Our country will rise or fall based on what they do in the upcoming months.

It’s very sad to see so many people in both parties who put their own greed, jealousies and hatred above the success of our country. Imagine what President Trump could accomplish if Congress would just work with him rather than against him.

Remember the crooked democrats’ October Surprise, the “Billy Bush Locker Room Tape”? Paul Ryan was out front & center demanding that Trump step down and let someone else take his nomination position. He was on all the talk shows over the weekend spouting his nonsense. Yes the entire mainstream media, most of the republicans and all of the democrats were against him. Still, we the people prevailed.
M A G A

Yes, Deplorable, and men all over Europe were laughing with admiration – wow! a real man! In fact, that was the reaction I encountered in Ireland and England when I was there the very day that news came out.
The Irishman said, “Your Mr. Trump has been a naughty boy!”
English taxi driver: “Well, ‘e’s a man, in’t ‘e?”
A lovely Welsh woman was nearly in tears when she told me she’d been (and still was) a vocal Brexit supporter, but her daughter, who worked in London wouldn’t speak to her!

I agree with you. This plot is just not the Democrats. The Republicans (or the largest majority) are just a corrupt as the Dems. That is why they get along so well. No one but the American people want Trump as our POTUS. This is the first time we actually have someone who cares about the American People and this Country!!.
Just keep praying.

I agree, Trump should request the various investigations and documents for the purpose to evaluate whether to declassify them…. he can set up teams to evaluate and filter and then pick those he wants to declassify. The only problem is that the teams would need security clearance… but he would not.

This just shows the Mueller Investigation is a fishing expedition in a blatant attempt to gather information to be used to impeach President Trump. And our taxes are paying for this fishing trip, big time.

As reported the needless investigation spent a bit over $3.2 million last year between May 17 – Sept 30. So we can figure they are spending about a million dollars a month on this stupid witch hunt. It has to stop!

So Rosenstein must have authorized expanding the SC investigation. Maybe not happy how Sessions was handling it since originally it was not in the SC scope. So it sounds like the SC thugs blew a gasket and want to investigate to make it into something rather than let the SDNY handle it.

It’s so obvious now the Mueller SC is not focused on any Russian collusion. Moreover, they don’t seem focused on anything – they’re just on goose chases now. Napalitano said if PTrump paid out of his money there’s no criminal- just inconsistent stories on a civil matter that is only of interest because of PTrump.

FBI interviews Stormy Daniels’s manager over bid to sell story of porn star’s sex claims with Trump for $200,000 before election
FBI agents interview and subpoena the manager who tried to sell Stormy Daniels’s claims of sex with Trump before the 2016 election
DailyMail.com revealed that Gina Rodriguez wanted up to $200,000 for as she offered her client’s story to celebrity magazines, television shows and websites
The titillating tell all was peddled to the media around October 17, three weeks before the election
But the adult actress apparently had no takers as Hillary was expected to win at the time, and Stormy’s story would have been worth a fraction of he price
Daniels then accepted the $130k from Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen, who had made her the offer after Trump won the nomination
‘It looks to me that she accepted Cohen’s money because she could not get the money she wanted from anyone else,’ one media executive said
Daniels told her version of her tryst with Trump to Anderson Cooper on CBS’s 60 Minutes last month
Stormy made it seem as though she did not seek to sell her story, telling Cooper: ‘Suddenly people are reaching out to me again, offering me money. Large amounts of money’

I think this might be good for Trump. Maybe Smarmy was trying to extort $$ from Trump. She was shopping her story for $200k but had no takers so she accepted an offer of $130k from Cohen to shut the h up.

I am not sure the estab gop want to win the house and senate again. As they were primarily anti trump and still engaged in damaging trump… perhaps they would prefer the dems to do their dirty work, get rid of trump and be back in control of party for 2020. Trump has disrupted their feeding trough as much as the dems.

I believe you are correct. They liked it better when they could do nothing for the American people and blame it on the Dems. Now we know the truth about them. I don’t think we can every put the genie back in the bottle though. How can we ever trust government again if they take POTUS out.

Federal investigators have wiretapped the phone lines of Michael Cohen, the longtime personal lawyer for President Donald Trump who is under investigation for a payment he made to an adult film star who alleged she had an affair with Trump, according to two people with knowledge of the legal proceedings involving Cohen.

It is not clear how long the wiretap has been authorized, but NBC News has learned it was in place in the weeks leading up to the raids on Cohen’s offices, hotel room, and home in early April, according to one person with direct knowledge.

At least one phone call between a phone line associated with Cohen and the White House was intercepted, the person said.

w/e
since ALL the information we get is ABSOLUTELY controlled by the thug puppet swamp media (Trump hating NBC in this case), and anything else we read or see (this blog for example) is simply speculation, interpretation or reporting of what THEY want us to see, i simply refuse to believe any of it on face value

wow…does anyone or everyone who ever knew or spoke to Donald Trump get wiretapped now ? And do their fiends and theur friends get wiretapped because they know someone who may have spoken to Donald Trump ?
Ladies and Gentlemen.. this is the Stasi in action .Welcome to the USA.
If Washington and Jefferson could see us now ?

IMO as long as President Trump is our President anyone associated with him will be investigated. Some lives will be destroyed. Some have been already. This is the Deep State telling those that oppose them , they will be destroyed. These politicians and higher powers are trying to make sure a Donald Trump never trys to run again. Our government is such a rigged system, to say the least. Please pray for our country.

Did Rosenstein sign off on this like the raid on Michael Cohen’s office? Rosenstein really needs to be fired. He is too complicit in the crimes, including signing off on the FISA warrant, to be trusted. This this wiretap originate from the FISA warrants? Rosenstein’s refusal to give Congress an unredacted copy of the letter expanding Mueller’s probe should be the final straw. He needs to go and have someone who is not corrupt supervise and rein in Mueller.

A bigger question concerns the McClatchy report of ~ April 13 that Mueller has new evidence Cohen went to Prague. Was this 99% likely phony evidence used in addition to the “dossier” to get the recent Michael Cohen warrant? Did Fusion GPS also “discover” this new evidence?

If so, that means “deep state” and Mueller are desperate to keep the “dossier” viable. If the “dossier” is publicly admitted to be bogus, that calls into question the whole private intel industry money flows.

I think Trump has a rough time to go. He blew it earlier not attacking the CrowdStrike report.

As I understood it, Mueller referred it to the Southern District NY court and they sent the FBI raiders to Cohen’s various addresses (he was staying in a hotel while his home was being renovated – they hit both home and hotel, as well as office)…

Funny if they thought they were going to get the emails that were on Weinies Computer. If they really want to know what’s on them, why don’t they ask HilLIARy? Maybe they realize she has dementia and fear that some of Debbie What’s-I-Done Shucks handiwork May be in them?? Crooked is as crooked does. I can only hope that what goes around comes around!! May the bluebird of happiness deposit white poo on Mule-er’s Head!!

Rudy gave the schooling media piranhas red meat with his comments about Cohens pay off to the slut. I’m trying see the legal strategy of having old Rudy blabbering out details of the cases on TV. Trump is being sued by Danials and chased by Mueller, so why have Rudy on Hannity bloviating about his love for the president and his “inside baseball” take on the presidents defense? Seems to me you don’t want to show your hand to the enemy, yet that’s what Rudy purposely did. Maybe that’s part of their legal strategy? A rope-a-dope to fool the opposition.

I sure hope that the new litigator that just joined the Trump legal team can turn this from a defensive op to an offensive op. What’s it going to take for Mueller to end his investigation? Everybody was happy when Rudy came on the Trump team and was sure that he was the closer to end the witch hunt. After watching Rudy on last nights show I don’t think he’s the closer. He sounded more like a politician than Trumps senior lawyer.

My take is that Rudy was trying to garner congressional support to get the witch hunt shut down. That, and trying to get ahead of Mueller leaking information that he found evidence that Trump paid the 130G back to Cohen.

This entire news cycle is rather mysterious. The fact that the lawyer paid the whore 130 Ks and then billed P Trump 130K is OLD news. This was reported months ago as I distinctly remember thinking, ‘so what?’

Rudy must have been drunk, he made multiple gaffes and appeared tongue-tied several times. Hannity should have corrected him saying “Trump fired Comey because Comey would not say Trump was not being investigated” – no, Comey would not say it PUBLICLY after saying it to Trump, which is old news but phrased so poorly that the MSM is pretending it is a blockbuster revelation. Get the hook.

If I was Trump, Rudy would be fired, and on the way out the door my size 12 combat boot would help him on his way!

Whenever heat is put on the DOJ by the president, it seems Sessions comes out of hiding to speak on illegal immigration. There has been pressure on the DOJ to give up docs regarding the Clinton investigation, on top of Trump’s Fox and Friends interview where he voiced his frustration with the DOJ, add to that Guiliani’s criticism. Like clockwork Sessions comes out of the woodwork to publicly reiterate his “tough” stance on illegal immigration. Anyone else notice this pattern?

I too have noticed this and commented on it to my wife. Every time Sessions is once again caught sleeping through crimes against the American people, he sticks his head out of his hole for a few minutes and reiterates, ‘yeah, but look what I am dong on illegal immigration and MS13……’

The time is running out in the Clock for major prosecution to happen. It’s like a close game of Basketball and the other team has the ball and the clock is winding down and they are playing keep-away.
The correct move for the White House, in my humble opinion, is to start to release every scrape of information from the oldest cases and let the FBI and Justice Department be made to take account for it’s actions.

I am so sick of this crap, I am tired of sifting through used kitty letter to find a little hope.

It has been almost two years now that we have had to impotently stand by while our candidate and then president, his family, and the members of his administration are trashed and belittled by people not smart enough to change a light bulb.

I’m all for indictment s but I can also read a calendar. I fear midterms without any indictments or trials, conservatives being disillusioned and not voting and having to listen to Ninny Pu-lose-ee campaign for her old job back as well as Mad Max screeching “Peach fawty -five”! The thought is. Enough for hair Kari!
,we need some bones to re-ignite the base!

They believe in being “patient” because they think this thing is just a “show.” Mueller is a White Hat, “secretly” (not anymore after THEY put it out on the Internet, but no matter) working with Trump to get Hillary. You see, Hillary is such a mastermind that it takes a convoluted scheme like this to “get” her. That is why everyone is told to relax, be patient, have some popcorn and “enjoy the show.” They aren’t sweating it because they think the “White Hats” control both ends of this “investigation”–DOJ and White House. This is “The Plan” as in “TRUST THE PLAN.” TRUST POTUS. TRUST SESSIONS.

-Worked for FBI for 19+ months-Was sent FBI talking points about Clinton email investigation and "why the case was different from other prosecutions"-Gave media interviews defending Comey but was never identified as an FBI employee. pic.twitter.com/kLuYfYpXre

and the 19 months ends in january 2017. so june 2015 to january 2017. perfectly aligns with trumps campaign/transition. i think this lends credence to the theory that daniel richman is one of the (redacted out) FBI contractors given access to the database

The counter-narrative is gaining steam. TIME magazine is “reporting” that the OIG report will focus primarily on Comey because he broke protocol by holding the July 2016 press conference and re-opening the investigation right before the election. In other words, “sources familiar” with the OIG report are assuming that the OIG will agree with the Democrats (who DEMANDED the OIG investigation in Jan. 2017)that the only sketchy thing in the entire “matter” was Comey.

Former Lurker: Monitoring the enemy comms and doing the enemy’s bidding are two different things. The constant parroting and rehashing of MSM feeds MSM revenue (clicks, page views, traffic, ad revenue) and does little to advance independent views.

When monitoring enemy comms, you don’t share your sources and methods with the enemy.

Rudy covered the last gasp of the “SD Hooker Fiasco” very well. A nice move. Mueller knows he was “Trumped”. Mc Cabe looks to be indicted by may 10th if the current plan with the IG and the AG hold to the schedule.

Strictly linear thinkers still don’t understand why Giuliani did what he did. And in a forum like that. He got out ahead of any mischief Mueller had planned with the Stormy stuff he got out of the Cohen raid.

Lots of conversation this morning about it. Bottom line: No one gives a damn about Stormy Daniels. An aging porn performer/stripper who allows herself to be used to extort a presidential candidate one month before the general election about something that she says happened years before? Bleah. There’s too much big stuff going on… That is what the fallout seems to be.

Really, who cares about “Stormy” Daniels, anyway? She has more miles on her than the Apollo Moonshots, so I doubt President Trump EVER had any interest in her…

The DEMONcRATs cannot get out of that LRH-inspired “fair game” approach of “blood, sex, crime”. To wit:

“This is the correct procedure: Spot who is attacking us. Start investigating them promptly for felonies or worse using our own professionals, not outside agencies. Double curve our reply by saying we welcome an investigation of them. Start feeding lurid, blood sex crime actual evidence on the attackers to the press. Don’t ever tamely submit to an investigation of us. Make it rough, rough on attackers all the way. – L. Ron Hubbard, Hubbard Communications Office Policy Letter, 25 February 1966

Napalitano is reporting that too – it’s a civil matter not criminal if PTrump paid. It’s just going to be sour grapes fuming in the msm about the details being inconsistent and doubts PTrump didn’t really know.

Current happenings are representative of Brennan’s warnings. They are pulling out all the stops to save themselves so they are going all in; trying to make it so those not overly close but helping the president will remove themselves from supporting him. Make it not worth being around him, Sarah Huckabee attacks; former campaign advisors legal costs, current lawyers leaving, WH admin members troubles (Kelly). They are isolating him and trying to ruin him before he can ruin them. This is as bad as it gets America, whoever wins out will set the world’s fate! I still bet on Trump always pulling through with the winning, but it is getting tough right now, OH Boy! This is Zero Sum. All or nothing. Disturbing to see so many political people know the corruption but turning a blind eye or too scared to help fight. This is either going to be the greatest Presidential moment or the point in History the world looks at the end of America as we knew it. This is civil war without the physical war, but just as serious and the same possible 2 outcomes. God bless President Trump.

Some of the early market selloff today was attributed to investor worries over impeachment, after the announcement and appearance of Rudy yesterday. Real jitters by smart people investing big money. This is getting superserious for those who bet big cash.

Meanwhile, Horizon Investments strategist Greg Valliere, who has long tracked political developments for Wall Street, wrote Thursday that he now sees at least 50% odds that Trump will face House impeachment in early 2019. Odds of removal from office are still low, but rising, he wrote.”

You are correct, the civil war has already begun the moment Trump was elected. We just have not started firing bullets yet. God help DC when the shooting does start. Those idiots do not understand the complete hate regular Americans have for the swamp

I do not understand the American system when a President is elected and people do not like him a want to impeach..?
What about the voters..?What about the constitution..? DC is like the wild west nothing has changed.. No wonder Presidents engage in wars that brings the country together and no impeachment. DC the swamp does not like peacemakers they want turmoil.
This is as bad as a Banana Republic so embarrassing and we are the one telling other countries to have peace and democracy.
Until we get rid of the swamp we have no right to tell others what to do and preach to them.

Someone told me long ago
There’s a calm before the storm
I know it’s been comin’ for some time
When it’s over so they say
It’ll rain a sunny day
I know shinin’ down like water
I want to know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know
Have you ever seen the rain
Comin’ down on a sunny day?

Oh, wait, …. back after Al Franklin asked about his encounters with the Russian Ambassador which seemed to confuse Jeff Sessions, then the MSM went on the attack on Jeff Sessions for a very brief day or two, and because Jeff was such a wimp, Jeff stated he would recuse himself from the Russian Thing (and everything else it seems) . That was the only time Jeff had problems with the MSM/Dems. And cowardly Jeff Sessions who caved in after a few days is hiding silently, hoping our LION President Trump doesn’t call him out and tell Sessions to stand up like a man, and defend this Movement and help Trump clean up the swamp. Trump takes our slings and arrows for us, and cowardly Sessions cowers in the corner hiding behind Rosenstein and Jeff’s supposed “honour”.

I see the FBI/DOJ going full steam ahead to continue to “nail Trump to the wall”, still wire taping him, and leaking stuff, and Jeff is silent, as usual.

The fake msm throws so much garbage every day 24X7, even my liberal friends stopped political discussion and mentioning what CNN/MSNBC said. I think PTrump brought liberal media saturation to their viewer; they do not care anymore and there is no breaking news. The power of fake msm is gone and black people are also getting alternate news. This is a end of progressive party as there is no center left democratic party ( may be RINO?).

As we sit here, tapping our fingers on our keyboards impatiently, others are doing serious work trying to bring order out of the Swamp chaos, bring those responsible for the chaos and corruption to justice (not just the nightly news), and a rare person called Sundance is doing the huge, patient, painstaking job of trying to make a bunch of amateurs understand what is happening.

Mueller, with the blessing of Rosenstein, is now in full attack mode on Trump, his family and lawyers. The BS that Trump is not a target is just that, BS. He is THE target. The FBI tapping Cohens phones is really unsettling and more proof that this is a witch hunt. Rudy bloviatting about Trumps defense strategy and the Cohen payoff on TV last night was asinine and very unhelpful.

As Sun Dance has so carefully detailed, we know that Trump has the evidence of the FBI conspiracy, the DNC paid for Steel docier, the FISA court abuse, Clinton’s illegal email operation and the Obama IC spying/dirty tricks. Many felonies have been committed by Obama, Clinton and their team of dirty, rotten scoundrels against Trump and the American people. So what is President Trump waiting for?

The fools in corporate media are absolutely obsessed with that “Stormy HotLips Daniels” fiction like it is of some great import. Fortunately most Americans are not stupid and do not hold pornographic actors in some high esteem of virtue and honesty. Real people don’t care what she claims or what her lawyer says.

Circus hell, the secret police force the FBI that should not even exist is trying to sieze control of our country. If you are not able to see the globalist and socialist are on the move against our country

I only listen to and give credence to President Trump, Sundance and some of the “branch hangers” on this site that are obviously educated, sane, rational and have a love for the country…..including that wild woman who goes around swinging her shovel. There appears to be a lot of “tree climbers” lately that have an agenda besides “truth and country”. MAGA

I have been coming here. Soon as some one points out (as in several of you think you know it alls) the timber in your eye you squeal just like liberals. If that is the way you want to treat people who come here to read and comment, knock your self out. Those types of comments are just like liberal comments, and I will sit on top of the bridge and watch you wallow in self righteousness

Yes Trump is in the fight of his life against a very deep and corrupt state but some how I can’t help but wonder if they actually try and take him down if the military won’t finally show their hand and step in? Maybe that is why the deep state hasn’t assassinated Trump yet because they are worried what the generals might then do? Also why partial release of JFK papers? A warning by the military to the deep state? Lots of questions but no answers.

Gee, the SDNY. The same USDA that squashed the Hillary emails Wener’s lawyer dropped on their desk? They are part of the Fifth Column as well. Q wasn’t kidding when hecsaid this is much bigger than you think. A cancer this deep was inherited by Obama. It goes back to Clinton, and continued by Bush. This is years of treachery embedded like a well-fed hive of ticks. Dangerous, scheming ticks.

It’s seems to me the OIG and his office is the only one trying to seek justice but criminal referrals belong to Sessions and he’s been locked in the bathroom ever since he recused himself. Still waiting on that big ugly…

where has abc been during all this? i know about cnn, mmsnbc, nbc, cbs, nyt, wapo and pbs? does this mean abc is not going along with the other liberal news outlets on main-stream media? the ig report and false russian narrative proves to us that these news outlets have been complicit in undermining the president and government. our justice and intel dept of previous admin conspired with many media outlets and should be held accountable, including abc! a few videos does not make up for their stance in all this. what a major disappointment our main-stream media has become!

Sundance has done a very good job with reporting on this, however, he now seems to be back peddling in what will be the aftermath. Horowitz will delay again. He cannot call into question his personal and religious relationship with his boss, Rosenstein. I see nothing on here in response to James Baker’s and Lisa Page’s Friday resignation. Pretty significant story dont you think? Not one mention of it and it happened Friday. It is early Monday morning. Presumably, these two are going to walk in order to turn around and be right back at it in a couple of years.

What say you Sundance? Don’t you think it is about time to give up on equal justice under the law in the former U.S. If you need readers fine, but I for one am done with ever thinking that equal justice will be carried out. As a nation, we’re finished…….
